[00:00:00] with strong gusts that might reach
[00:00:03] storm force. Monday, Tuesday, it will gradually become more
[00:00:07] stable, dry and sunny, that is until Wednesday, when a new front again
[00:00:10] knocks.
[00:00:22] Good morning, here's the latest news from TV-Avisen.
[00:00:25] Foreign Minister Lars Løkke Rasmussen travels today to the USA, where Denmark,
[00:00:29] Greenland and the USA. next week, according to plan, will sign
[00:00:32] an agreement on Greenland's future. This picture
[00:00:36] is from Donald Trump's true social post, where he Friday evening
[00:00:39] wrote that an agreement is in place. The content of the new
[00:00:43] agreement has not yet been published, but the parties have
[00:00:46] apparently agreed that the Commonwealth will remain. The
[00:00:50] same applies to Greenland's right to self-determination, and that
[00:00:53] the USA will gain control over security in Greenland, and will increase its
[00:00:57] military presence immediately. The speech is
[00:01:00] scheduled to be signed at a ceremony in connection with
[00:01:04] the UN General Assembly in New York, and until then, the
[00:01:07] exercise is to remain calm. There
[00:01:11] are many who have opinions about this, very few have yet seen
[00:01:15] the agreement text, and I think that the Danish government at least
[00:01:18] just hopes that one can get as much calm as possible, so that one can
[00:01:22] sign the agreement, so that suddenly no situations
[00:01:26] arise that could hinder this from happening.
[00:01:30] Because I also have to say that the people I have spoken to say that
[00:01:33] along the way it has been very close to going wrong, that is, that one was at a
[00:01:37] point where one could not reach an agreement, that one has now
[00:01:40] obtained.
[00:01:42] Yesterday evening, Donald Trump shared the front page of the New
[00:01:46] York Post, where they wrote Green New Deal,
[00:01:49] USA's military forever right over Greenland. This suggests
[00:01:53] that the White House succeeded in selling the agreement as a victory
[00:01:57] to the Americans, it sounds.
[00:02:01] "Now they have achieved what they wanted, uh, it
[00:02:04] may not be ownership, but now they have at least obtained
[00:02:08] permanent, as it says, military control
[00:02:11] of Greenland, uh, there is, not everything that is in that tweet,
[00:02:15] which Donald Trump sent out, and also not in that front page, which is entirely
[00:02:19] correct, but in reality there is no one
[00:02:22] who has such a very concrete interest in finding out
[00:02:25] exactly who is right, as long as the three parties can agree
[00:02:29] and..." about this being a good agreement, well then I think
[00:02:33] in reality Mette Frederiksen and Jens Frederik Nielsen from Greenland can
[00:02:36] live with Trump going out and saying things that are not entirely
[00:02:39] true. Until the signature is in place, it is with some
[00:02:43] caution that Danish business welcomes the new
[00:02:47] him as a agreement on Greenland's future. I
[00:02:49] think, a little calm now, and then let's see that
[00:02:53] agreement very concretely, so that we know it is signed and see what the content
[00:02:57] is. But when the signatures are dry, then
[00:03:01] Danish business looks forward to
[00:03:03] stability.
[00:03:05] I think we should wait to sell the skin before the bear
[00:03:09] is shot, but it is clear that increased stability around
[00:03:13] the Commonwealth, well that is good for Danish business, it is good for Greenlandic
[00:03:17] business, it is good for investments, because the worst
[00:03:20] thing business knows is uncertainty and changes, this, this can provide
[00:03:24] stability, stability, that is good, and precisely the last
[00:03:28] point, large American military presence in a part of
[00:03:31] Greenland can be good business for the country, that's what
[00:03:34] Greenland's business says. We are talking about some
[00:03:38] military installations, and we are actually used to that in a Greenlandic context. We had Ganger
[00:03:42] slug until '92, we had Narsazuarg until sometime in the 50s. We
[00:03:45] still have bitofik space space. So, seen with
[00:03:48] Greenlandic glasses and Greenlandic business glasses, there are
[00:03:52] some opportunities to service these bases in
[00:03:55] various ways, just as we have been used to, just as we do both with Danish and
[00:03:58] American defense.
[00:04:02] In Russia, the election to the Russian lower house, the Duma,
[00:04:06] will be decided today. The first election since the invasion of
[00:04:10] Ukraine, therefore the election also includes voters in the four
[00:04:13] Ukrainian regions, which Russia has illegally
[00:04:16] annexed. At the last election, President Putin's
[00:04:19] supporting party, United Russia, won 324 of
[00:04:22] the Duma's 450 seats. It requires at least 300
[00:04:26] seats to be able to carry out constitutional amendments without
[00:04:29] support from any other parties. 111
[00:04:32] million Russians have been able to cast their votes since Friday, and it is
[00:04:36] important for them, they
[00:04:37] believe.
[00:04:47] It's decided, maybe one single vote,
[00:04:49] which will decide this
[00:04:53] country.
[00:05:12] that Dr. We have a journalist present in Moscow. That's you, Louise
[00:05:16] Brothain. What's at stake in this
[00:05:18] election?
[00:05:23] This election is in many ways about support for
[00:05:27] the war. The president himself has been out and encouraged people to
[00:05:30] vote, he did that before the election and as we just heard this couple say, but it
[00:05:34] is important for them too, to show what they
[00:05:38] think, and why they are down to vote, is because well, that's the only
[00:05:41] option. they have. Having said that, there is dissatisfaction, there
[00:05:45] is dissatisfaction with the war, which is now in its fifth year, the
[00:05:49] consequences that people are feeling, price increases, repeated
[00:05:53] attacks, among others here on Moscow, uh, but what it's
[00:05:56] about is to show that there is cohesion here, if you then look at
[00:05:59] those who are in some form of opposition, well, this election
[00:06:02] is simply about demonstrating the exact opposite, namely, that one does not want
[00:06:06] the candidates for United Russia, and one would like something else, so
[00:06:10] how do these protest votes manifest
[00:06:12] themselves?
[00:06:17] What has been called for, and this applies both in the country itself, but
[00:06:21] also from exile politicians in particular, it is about saying, well, if one
[00:06:25] is to take part in this election, so-called election
[00:06:28] to uh demonstrate, then one must cast blank
[00:06:31] votes, one must vote for all candidates, uh,
[00:06:35] who are not from United Russia, to demonstrate that one wants something else. Having
[00:06:39] said that, it is also important to say that there are no parties that are... nominated,
[00:06:43] that are directly against the war, the only party that has expressed a line
[00:06:47] that is opposed to the war, they have simply not been allowed to run, so one can
[00:06:51] say, there may be protest votes, but it can be difficult to see if it will even
[00:06:55] make a difference to the result. So Louise, do we already know the result
[00:06:58] before the polling stations
[00:06:59] close?
[00:07:04] I think I might as well put my head on the block and say, won't it be
[00:07:08] United Russia that wins the majority of the votes here, here
[00:07:11] this morning. They had already registered around
[00:07:14] 45% almost who have been down to vote, and I don't think that
[00:07:18] the result will be a big surprise, it will probably be the same four or five
[00:07:21] parties that end up in parliament, and as I said, the president's
[00:07:25] supporting party, which wins the majority of
[00:07:27] the votes.
[00:07:30] Russia is going to elections while the country is at war with Ukraine, and on
[00:07:33] election day, Moscow and Omejn have also been targets for
[00:07:37] attacks with several hundred drones. An oil refinery near
[00:07:40] Moscow has been hit. Two have lost their lives and another six
[00:07:44] have been injured. And back to you Louise. Last night, there have been
[00:07:48] drone attacks around Moscow. How do Russians
[00:07:51] experience the war?
[00:07:56] I think you have to remember that there is a big difference between what happens here in
[00:08:00] Moscow and perhaps also St. Petersburg, the other big city here, and what
[00:08:04] else happens around the country. Here in Moscow, where I am, and in central
[00:08:07] Moscow, you don't really feel anything. It's hard to see on
[00:08:10] the street. There are maybe some posters, some advertisements from
[00:08:14] the national guard, they would probably have been there anyway, so it's not like
[00:08:18] there are air raid sirens and bells ringing and such, you have to go a bit further out to see some of these
[00:08:21] attacks or their consequences, so there's not much to feel here,
[00:08:25] but if you go further out, if you go further down towards the border regions, then it's of course
[00:08:29] something completely different, here people also talk a bit more openly about what's going on, uh,
[00:08:32] so therefore you can say here in the center of power, it's not here that you feel the
[00:08:36] big difference, and in the latest episode of "War's Day", you can
[00:08:40] see what consequences it has for the Russian here at the front, when
[00:08:44] misinformation spreads between the military and the political
[00:08:47] top. You can find "War's Day" on
[00:08:49] DR TV.
[00:08:53] The British pop singer Ed Sheeran now apologizes and
[00:08:57] addresses the conflict between Israel and Palestine after a week of
[00:09:00] massive
[00:09:01] criticism.
[00:09:06] I am making mistakes and I'm so so sorry. What happened in Israel and at the music festival on October 7th was
[00:09:10] horrific and compounded centuries of
[00:09:13] pain. What is happening in Gaza is a
[00:09:16] catastrophic and unjustifiable and
[00:09:19] disproportionate. My heart has been broken by the scale of
[00:09:23] devastation and loss of civilian
[00:09:25] lives.
[00:09:28] has been in the spotlight this past week after rapper Macklemore was
[00:09:32] removed as an opening act on a Sheeran tour for
[00:09:35] expressing pro-Palestinian messages from the stage. It
[00:09:39] was the organizer behind the tour who made the decision to
[00:09:42] exclude Macklemore. Since then, the Danish band Lukas Graham
[00:09:46] and other opening acts have withdrawn from the tour in
[00:09:49] protest, and yesterday, Sheeran went on stage
[00:09:52] without support, but he emphasizes that the tour
[00:09:55] continues. Honoring my commitment to my fans
[00:09:59] is also completely central to who I am, and
[00:10:03] that is why I'm here tonight on my
[00:10:05] own and continuing
[00:10:07] my
[00:10:11] current tour. Outside Lincoln Financial, where the concert was held,
[00:10:14] pro-Palestinian protesters had gathered to show their
[00:10:17] dissatisfaction with
[00:10:19] the pop singer.
[00:10:25] I feel fairly betrayed um as a former fan um
[00:10:29] because I think that doing the right thing is is
[00:10:32] stronger and uh is more important than than his
[00:10:35] music or him as a
[00:10:37] celebrity.
[00:10:40] So we're going back home again. The electricity price this week has reached its highest level in
[00:10:44] almost two years, with a price of seven kroner per kilowatt hour.
[00:10:48] The prices, however, fluctuate wildly, sometimes it costs zero kroner to
[00:10:52] charge your car or turn on the washing machine. This fluctuation,
[00:10:55] a wind turbine owner will now try to do something about, therefore he has, as the first
[00:10:59] in Denmark, connected a large battery to a wind turbine.
[00:11:03] The battery that stands there, it can
[00:11:06] hold 4500 kWh. That
[00:11:10] is equivalent to an average household's annual
[00:11:13] consumption. It is this wind turbine in Kikenborg in
[00:11:17] Lemvig municipality, which has had a battery retrofitted.
[00:11:20] The battery stores electricity both from the turbine and from the grid,
[00:11:24] when the price is low. "It benefits the whole society, it
[00:11:27] benefits Denmark, it benefits companies that use a lot of
[00:11:31] electricity, it helps generally to prevent large
[00:11:35] price fluctuations, and over time, when enough of these facilities are built, the price of electricity will
[00:11:38] level out more. The turbine was put into operation in
[00:11:42] 2013, and now Gunnar Lisby has spent a single-digit
[00:11:45] million amount to connect the battery to it. He has the same plan
[00:11:49] for another turbine in the area, which will get a battery of
[00:11:52] double size.
[00:11:54] Then in my. there will of course always be peaks, because then I earn more money,
[00:11:58] so I contribute to creating a cannibalization of this,
[00:12:01] but that's what we all need, and we need it at a
[00:12:04] time when we have a problem with the overall grid, that it is
[00:12:07] simply overloaded. Our
[00:12:10] electricity consumption is rising significantly as society becomes more
[00:12:14] electrified and more large data centers emerge. This
[00:12:18] makes it difficult for our self-grid to keep up. Here, batteries like the one in
[00:12:21] Kikenborg can help relieve the grid.
[00:12:25] I think we should have more solutions of this kind, it's something that can benefit
[00:12:29] all of us, but we need that, uh
[00:12:32] Energinet and the grid companies also come out of the bush with some more
[00:12:36] products here. The electricity grid is so difficult to keep
[00:12:39] up with that Energinet has temporarily put a stop to new large
[00:12:42] grid connections, this stop also affects large
[00:12:45] batteries that draw power from the grid, and this meets harsh criticism
[00:12:49] from Danish business, which calls it a scandal. One actually sees
[00:12:53] investments in batteries on a massive scale in the rest of
[00:12:56] Europe, but not in Denmark, uh, so here
[00:13:00] we are not a pioneering country, yes, and certainly not when you have said that you cannot do
[00:13:04] anything at all, because there is nothing that can connect to the electricity grid, that goes without saying, then we are
[00:13:07] almost a developing country as it is today, hopefully that will change in
[00:13:10] the future.
[00:13:14] Copenhagen this weekend is hosting the World Championships
[00:13:18] Road Race, today it's the half marathon through the
[00:13:21] streets of Copenhagen.
[00:13:24] And that's what happened, and now we're out there, both
[00:13:28] the world elite and thousands of recreational runners will be doing the
[00:13:31] half marathon distance, the race starts and
[00:13:34] finishes in Fælledparken in Østerbro, and Tobias Bolt,
[00:13:38] our reporter in the area,
[00:13:41] you almost look like someone, I can see,
[00:13:43] who's ready to run, what kind of day
[00:13:47] will it be? Yes, I haven't put on my running clothes, but it's going to be a
[00:13:51] huge, huge day, this is the biggest running event ever held
[00:13:55] in, uh, on Danish soil, so it's pretty
[00:13:58] quiet right now around the finish line here in Østerbro, but a little
[00:14:02] later it will be swarming with people, 45,000
[00:14:06] registered for this half marathon, and it's both happy amateur runners, but also
[00:14:10] the world elite who are at the start, there are both world champions and Olympic
[00:14:13] medal winners in this race, so it will be a huge
[00:14:17] morning. And what does it mean that both the world elite and
[00:14:20] amateur runners are running, how will it affect
[00:14:23] the city and the atmosphere along
[00:14:26] the route?
[00:14:29] Well, that's what makes this so special, that happy amateurs
[00:14:33] are trying their hand at the same route as the world elite, and if not
[00:14:37] running side by side, then at least they can compare themselves, that's what
[00:14:40] makes it so special, that it's a world championship, and that there are so many of the big
[00:14:44] stars, you can also feel that in the atmosphere when you run around here in
[00:14:48] Fælledparken and feel that buzzing anticipation that there is
[00:14:52] among all the many amateurs who have registered. for this race,
[00:14:56] and then the question is whether the weather will be dry also in the rest of
[00:14:59] the country. Unfortunately it won't. We have entered a day with
[00:15:03] real autumn weather with both rain and wind. But in some places there
[00:15:07] is also dry weather and sunshine right now, but during the morning there will
[00:15:11] gradually be more showers, and they will throughout the day drift across
[00:15:14] the country from west to east. These showers can locally be relatively
[00:15:18] strong and also with a risk of hail and
[00:15:21] thunder. Temperatures will peak at 14,
[00:15:25] 15-16 degrees, but it will feel noticeably cooler,
[00:15:28] because the wind is also a significant factor
[00:15:32] today. We will have a fresh to strong wind over land, out
[00:15:35] along the coasts, locally up to cooling and with some strong
[00:15:39] gusts that can easily reach stormy cooling, and in connection with the
[00:15:42] strongest showers, one can even get gusts of
[00:15:45] storm force. Here we can see how the strongest wind field moves throughout the
[00:15:49] day, starting out at the Jutland west coast, moving up into
[00:15:52] Skagerrak, Kattegat and finally also over the Baltic Sea, so yes,
[00:15:56] real autumn weather here
[00:15:58] Sunday.
[00:16:05] This content about fitness and trip. and diet, it takes up an extreme amount of space on
[00:16:09] social media, that body ideal that I want
[00:16:12] comes from social media, you want to be
[00:16:16] like them, and fit into what you are constantly exposed to, you are
[00:16:19] led to think that if I eat the same way, I will
[00:16:23] look that way, the turning point
[00:16:25] was being about to die,
[00:16:29] much of the content is presented as health
[00:16:32] or self-care, and what it really is, is the exact
[00:16:35] opposite, the lie in the feed, it's a completely skewed plan, you
[00:16:39] get sick from eating like this, now on
[00:16:41] DRTv, oh, it's
[00:16:45] wild, well, it's incomprehensible,
[00:16:48] completely, we have traveled into the
[00:16:51] incomprehensibly large country, yes, that's what it's like here, you should
[00:16:54] be, yes, is that it, not to have all of China
[00:16:57] explained, but to get a little closer, so you feel
[00:17:01] left out if you're not on tiktok and streaming,
[00:17:04] okay, and maybe to place a few. prejudices, as
[00:17:08] Danes we can probably get a little lost and think our system is perfect and it will just
[00:17:11] work, it could never work in China, and we know too
[00:17:15] little and perhaps fear too much. Anne and Anders
[00:17:18] in China, now on DRTV and tonight at
[00:17:22] 8 PM on
[00:17:23] DR1.
[00:18:34] good morning, here's the latest news from TV-Avisen,
[00:18:37] Foreign Minister Lars Lykke Rasmussen travels today to the USA, where Denmark,
[00:18:41] Greenland and the USA next week, according to plan, will sign
[00:18:45] an agreement on Greenland's future. This picture
[00:18:48] is from Donald Trump's truth social post, where he Friday evening
[00:18:52] wrote that an agreement is in place. The content of the new
[00:18:56] agreement has not yet been published, but the parties have
[00:18:59] apparently agreed that the Commonwealth will remain. The
[00:19:03] same applies to Greenland's right to self-determination, and that the USA
[00:19:06] has control over security in Greenland and will increase its military
[00:19:10] presence immediately. The agreement is
[00:19:13] scheduled to be signed at a ceremony in connection with
[00:19:16] the UN General Assembly in New York, and until then,
[00:19:20] the exercise is to remain calm. There
[00:19:24] are many who have opinions about this, very few have yet
[00:19:27] seen the agreement text, and I think that the Danish government at least
[00:19:31] just hopes that one can get as much calm as
[00:19:34] possible, so that one can sign the agreement, so that no
[00:19:37] sudden situations arise that could
[00:19:41] hinder this from happening, because I also have to say that the people I
[00:19:44] have spoken to say that along the way it has been very close
[00:19:48] to going wrong, that is, that one was at a point where one could not reach an agreement,
[00:19:52] that one has now obtained.
[00:19:55] Yesterday evening, Donald Trump shared the front page of the New
[00:19:59] York Post, where they wrote, Green New Deal,
[00:20:02] USA's military forever right over Greenland. This suggests
[00:20:06] that the White House succeeded in selling the agreement as a victory
[00:20:10] to the Americans, it sounds.
[00:20:13] now they have achieved what they wanted. Uh, it
[00:20:17] may not be ownership, but now they have at least obtained
[00:20:20] permanent, as it says, military control
[00:20:24] of Greenland. Uh, there, not everything that is in that
[00:20:27] tweet that Donald Trump sent out, and also not in that front page, which is entirely
[00:20:31] correct, but in reality there is no one
[00:20:35] who has such a very concrete interest in finding out
[00:20:38] exactly who is right, as long as the three parties can agree
[00:20:42] that this is a good agreement, well then I think
[00:20:46] in reality Mette Frederiksen and Jens Frederik Nielsen from Greenland can
[00:20:49] live with Trump going out and saying things that are not entirely
[00:20:52] true. Until the signature is in place, it is with some
[00:20:56] caution that Danish business welcomes the new
[00:20:59] agreement on Greenland's future. I
[00:21:02] think, uh, a little calm now, and then let's see that
[00:21:06] agreement very concretely, so that we know it is signed and see what the content
[00:21:10] is. But when the ink on the signatures is dry, then
[00:21:13] Danish business looks forward to
[00:21:16] stability. I think we should wait to.
[00:21:20] sell the skin before the bear is shot, but of course,
[00:21:23] increased stability around the Commonwealth, well, that is
[00:21:27] good for Danish business, it is good for Greenlandic business, it is good for
[00:21:31] investments, because the worst thing business knows is uncertainty
[00:21:35] and changes, this can bring stability, stability is
[00:21:38] good, and precisely the last point, a large American military
[00:21:42] presence in a part of Greenland can be good
[00:21:45] business for the country, that's what Greenland's
[00:21:48] business says. We are talking. We are talking about some
[00:21:51] military installations, and we are actually used to that in a Greenlandic context. We had Ganger
[00:21:55] Sludsvarg until '92, we had Nazarg until sometime in the 50s, we
[00:21:58] still have Bitofik Space Space, so seen with
[00:22:01] Greenlandic glasses and Greenlandic business glasses, there are
[00:22:04] some opportunities to service these bases in
[00:22:07] various ways, just as we have been used to, just as we do both with Danish and American
[00:22:11] defense.
[00:22:15] In Russia, the election to the Russian lower house, the Duma,
[00:22:19] will be decided today. The first election since the invasion of
[00:22:22] Ukraine, therefore the election also includes voters in the four
[00:22:25] Ukrainian regions, which Russia has illegally
[00:22:28] annexed. At the last election, President Putin's
[00:22:32] supporting party, United Russia, won 324 of
[00:22:35] the Duma's 450 seats. It requires at least 300
[00:22:38] seats to be able to carry out constitutional amendments without
[00:22:41] support from any other parties. 111
[00:22:45] million Russians have been able to cast their votes since Friday, and it is
[00:22:48] important for them.
[00:23:23] And it's the first time in four years that we have a journalist present
[00:23:27] in Moscow. That's you, Louise Brothain, what's at
[00:23:30] stake in this
[00:23:31] election?
[00:23:36] This election is in many ways about support for
[00:23:39] the war. The president himself has been out and encouraged people to
[00:23:43] vote, he did that before the elections, as we also just heard this couple say, but it
[00:23:47] is important for them too to show what they think,
[00:23:51] and why they are down to vote, is because, well, that's the only
[00:23:54] option they have. Having said that, there is dissatisfaction,
[00:23:58] there is dissatisfaction with the war, which is now in its fifth year, the
[00:24:02] consequences that people are feeling, price increases, repeated
[00:24:05] attacks, among others here on Moscow, but what it's about
[00:24:09] is to show that there is unity here, if you then look at those who are
[00:24:12] in some form of opposition, well then this election is simply about
[00:24:16] demonstrating the exact opposite, namely, that one does not want the candidates for...
[00:24:20] United Russia, and one wants something else. So how do these
[00:24:23] protest votes manifest
[00:24:25] themselves?
[00:24:30] What has been called for, and this applies both in the country itself, but
[00:24:34] also from exile politicians in particular, it is about saying: well, if one
[00:24:37] must participate in this election, so-called election, in order
[00:24:41] to, uh, demonstrate, well, then you must cast blank votes, you
[00:24:45] must vote for all candidates who are not
[00:24:48] from United Russia. just to demonstrate that you want something else. Having said
[00:24:52] that, it's also important to say that there are no parties that are running that
[00:24:56] are directly against the war. The only party that has expressed a
[00:24:59] line that is opposed to the war, they simply haven't been allowed to run,
[00:25:03] so you could say there might be protest votes, but it's hard to see if it
[00:25:06] will even mean anything for the outcome. So Louise, do we
[00:25:10] already know the result before the polling
[00:25:12] stations close?
[00:25:17] I think I'll go out on a limb and say: Isn't it likely that
[00:25:21] United Russia will win the majority of the votes here? This morning, I think
[00:25:25] they had already registered about 45%,
[00:25:28] almost, who had voted, and I don't think the result will be a big
[00:25:32] surprise. It will probably be the same four or five parties that end up in parliament,
[00:25:36] and as I said, the president's supporting party, which will win
[00:25:39] the majority of the votes.
[00:25:40] Russia
[00:25:43] goes to election while the country is at war with Ukraine, and on election day,
[00:25:47] Moscow and Omeyne have also been targeted by attacks with several
[00:25:50] hundred drones, an oil refinery near
[00:25:53] Moscow has been hit, two have lost their lives and another six
[00:25:57] are injured, and now back to you, Louise, night, there have been
[00:26:00] drone attacks around Moscow. How do Russians experience
[00:26:04] the war?
[00:26:09] I think one should remember that there is a big difference between what happens here in
[00:26:13] Moscow and even perhaps St. Petersburg, the other big city here, and what
[00:26:17] else happens around the country. Here in Moscow, where I am, and in central
[00:26:20] Moscow, you don't really feel anything, it's hard to see on the street,
[00:26:24] uh, there might be some posters, some advertisements from the National Guard, they would
[00:26:28] probably have been there anyway, so it's not like there are
[00:26:31] air raid sirens and ringing. You have to go a bit further out to see some of these attacks,
[00:26:35] or their consequences, so there's not much to feel here, but if you go further
[00:26:38] out, if you go further down towards the border regions, then it's a completely
[00:26:42] different matter, here people also talk a bit more openly about what's going on, uh, so
[00:26:45] therefore you could say here in the center of power, it's not here that you feel the big
[00:26:49] difference, and in the latest episode of "Krigens døjen" (The Burden of War), you can
[00:26:53] see what consequences it has for the Russian here at the front, when
[00:26:56] misinformation spreads between the military and the political
[00:27:00] top, you can find "Krigens døgn" (War's Day) on the,
[00:27:02] TV.
[00:27:06] British pop singer Ed Sheeran is now apologizing and
[00:27:09] speaking about the conflict between Israel and Palestine after weeks of
[00:27:13] massive criticism. I am
[00:27:16] making mistakes and I'm so so sorry. What happened in
[00:27:19] Israel and at the nov of music festival on October 7th was
[00:27:22] horrific and compounded centuries of Jewish
[00:27:25] pain. What is happening in Gaza is a
[00:27:29] catastrophic and unjustifiable and
[00:27:32] disproportionate. My heart has been broken by the scale of
[00:27:36] devastation and loss of civilians
[00:27:38] lives. The pop singer has been in the spotlight this
[00:27:42] past week after rapper Macklemore was removed as
[00:27:45] an opening act on Ed Sheeran's tour for expressing
[00:27:48] pro-Palestinian messages from the stage. It was
[00:27:52] the organizer behind the tour who made the decision to exclude
[00:27:55] Michael Moore. Since then, the Danish band Lucas Graham and other
[00:27:59] opening acts have withdrawn from the tour in protest. And
[00:28:03] yesterday, Ed Sheeran therefore went on stage without support, but he
[00:28:07] emphasizes that the tour will continue.
[00:28:10] Honoring my commitment to my fans is also completely
[00:28:13] central to who I am, and that is why I'm here
[00:28:16] tonight, on my own and continuing my current
[00:28:20] tour.
[00:28:23] Outside Lincoln Financial Field, where the concert was
[00:28:26] held, pro-Palestinian demonstrators
[00:28:29] had gathered to show their dissatisfaction with the pop singer.
[00:28:38] I feel fairly betrayed, um, as a former fan, um,
[00:28:41] because I think that doing the right thing is is stronger
[00:28:45] and uh, is more important than than his music or
[00:28:50] celebrity.
[00:28:53] So, back home again. Electricity prices this week hit their highest level
[00:28:57] in almost two years, with a price of seven kroner per kilowatt
[00:29:00] hour. However, prices fluctuate.
[00:29:02] Sometimes it costs zero kroner to charge your car or turn on
[00:29:06] the washing machine. A wind turbine owner will now try to
[00:29:10] do something about these fluctuations. Therefore, he has become the first in Denmark to connect a large
[00:29:14] battery to a wind turbine. The battery
[00:29:16] that stands there can hold
[00:29:19] 4500 kilowatt hours. That's equivalent
[00:29:23] to the average household's consumption per
[00:29:26] year. This is the turbine in Kikenborg in
[00:29:29] Lemvig municipality, which has had a battery retrofitted. The
[00:29:33] battery stores power from the turbine, but also from the grid,
[00:29:36] when the price is low, it benefits the entire
[00:29:39] society, it benefits Denmark, it benefits businesses,
[00:29:42] who use a lot of power, it contributes to simply
[00:29:46] generally instead of large price fluctuations, over time, if there are enough
[00:29:49] of these installations, the price of electricity would flatten out more.
[00:29:53] The turbine was put into operation in 2013, and now Gunnar
[00:29:56] Lisby has spent a single-digit million amount to connect the battery.
[00:30:00] He has the same plan for another turbine in the area, which
[00:30:04] will get a battery of double the size.
[00:30:07] My interest will of course always be prices, because then I earn more money,
[00:30:10] so I'm contributing to cannibalizing this,
[00:30:14] but that's what we all need, and we need it at a
[00:30:17] time when we have problems with the overall grid, that it is
[00:30:20] simply overloaded. Our
[00:30:23] electricity consumption is rising significantly as society becomes more
[00:30:27] electrified and more large data centers are popping up. This
[00:30:30] means that our electricity grid is struggling to keep up, here batteries, like the one in
[00:30:34] Kigenborg, can help relieve the grid. I think we
[00:30:38] should have more of these types of solutions, it's something that can benefit
[00:30:41] all of us, but we need Energinet and the grid companies
[00:30:45] to also come out of the woodwork with more products here.
[00:30:49] The electricity grid is struggling so much to keep up that Energinet has temporarily put a
[00:30:52] stop to new large grid connections.
[00:30:55] The stop also affects large batteries that store power from the grid.
